Print Head Maintenance and Nozzle Recovery
Print head maintenance and nozzle recovery are essential procedures. Cleaning and
flushing ink buildup from the capping station, carriage face plate, and the print head
nozzle plate help to ensure optimum performance from your Arizona T220 printer .
Cleaning should be done once a week or as required before media placement and large
print runs.
6.1.4
Cleaning Solution Usage
The cleaning solution, CGS 80, part #3000-0057, is a solvent used to flush print heads
and clean ink from surfaces with a lint-free cloth. Ink stains on painted sheet metal
should only be exposed to the cleaning solution for a few seconds at a time to prevent
the paint finish from smearing.
The cleaning solution is also used to supply and preserve the capping station foam pads
during operation of the printer. The operator replaces or refills the cleaning solution
container located on the ink supply tray when the printer senses the bottle is nearing
empty.
